"In
all the discussion over the mode of baptism and the disputes over its meaning,
it is easy for Christians to lose sight of the significance and beauty of
baptism and to disregard the tremendous blessing that accompanies this
ceremony. The amazing (picture) of passing through the waters of judgment
safely, of dying and rising with Christ, and of having our sins washed away,
are truths of momentous and eternal proportion and ought to be an occasion for
giving great glory and praise to God." -Wayne Grudem
